Bruce Highway: Three teens in hospital after Bowen crash

Three teenagers have been taken to hospital after a stolen car crashed into a parked vehicle on the Bruce Highway.

Two teens are in custody after a stolen car crashed into a parked vehicle on the Bruce Highway south of Bowen.

Emergency services, including paramedics and police, attended the two-vehicle crash on the Bruce Highway in Bowen about 9.30am.

A vehicle travelling on the Bruce Highway hit a stationary car outside an Ampol service station after the driver suffered a medical episode.

The Mazda was allegedly stolen from a Bowen house on Sunday night before the crash on Monday morning.

Police initial investigations have identified the teenagers as the occupants of the stolen car, with a 16-year-old girl and a 14-year-old boy helping with their inquiries.

Paramedics assessed four people at the scene, including one person in the parked car, and took three teenagers to Bowen Hospital in a stable condition.

The fourth person was assessed at the scene but was not taken to hospital.

The Bruce Highway was not closed for any period of time.

The crash comes less than a week after a man died on the same stretch of road.

Ralph Gibbs, 80, was involved in a head-on collision on the Bruce Highway after his ute veered into the wrong lane.

Police are still investigating the incident which left a 60-year-old Bowen man in serious condition.
